I need to retrieve some text docs off of a 15 year old 5 1/4 inch floppy, written in Bank Street Writer on an Apple IIC. I would like to convert the file to a MS Word document that I can read on a modern computer. Any ideas?
Try to step up gradually if possible. You don't state what type of machine(s) you have at your disposal, so here is what I would do under varying situations.
A) Have a IIe at my disposal w/the version of Appleworks, import BSW files into Appleworks using ASCII (works with some formatting issues, used to do it in high school). Save to 3 1/2 floppy. Then import Appleworks file into Clarisworks 2.0 on a PowerPC, then import into Appleworks 6.2 and save as MS document.
B) Attempt to import documents directly into Appleworks 6.2 from BSW.
